I have been working a lot the last couple months. I have 4 days off now since they needed me the days off I was going to take a few weeks ago. Working on my house now. Should have siding and trim done this weekend. Finishing my back splash in my kitchen today too and doing some interior trim after replacing 5 more windows and my front door.

I am also cutting out my new splitter today so I can work on getting that all mounted up with the new quick release setup.

Met our new neighbors today. Ends up he did drywall. He came over to look at my garage project. I had a guy over a few weeks ago quote me $950 for the repairs. I thought that was way too much. My new neighbor said, once my hand has healed, he'll come over and we will do it together. He also said he has the materials. I said how much? He said he likes hamburgers, I said I'll make steaks, unless you really want hamburgers. So cool!

I sure love my neighborhood in Idaho.

Gimmick filled car with things like a red N Grin Shift button on the wheel(Looks like a driving sim wheel LOL) for a poor 0-60 at best 4.7 secs. Wet dual multiplate clutches that struggle to do a 100 millisecond shift that at full noise is so rough it smacks you into the seat. Down shifting is smooth but worse with throttle blips every shift so when hard on the small14.2 inch brakes it wastes fuel.
